AirPods Pro 2 Not Switching Automatically from Iphone to Mac (Sonoma)

Hi,


Please note that I can't find a solution or a way to make my airpods automatically switch to my macbook pro M2 from my Iphone 12 mini ( I do it manually rm) : I don't see the "Connect to this Mac: Automatically option in my airpods Bluetooth settings. this selection option doesn't exist in my airpods settings on Mac which is weird as it must be below the "version" text as seen in the below screenshot.



Thanks for providing me with a solution to this problem.

Automatically Switching AirPods Connections:

You Can't. What you need to do is perform this manually --unpair them from one device, and, then pari them to the other device. Bluetooth devices can only be paired to one device at a time. This is the way the Bluetooth Protocol works.
